Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions

Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. It allows you to view conversations, narration and sound effects as subtitles on your TV. Closed Captions are available on some TV programs and on some VHS home video tapes at the discretion of the program provider.

Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption service available only on digital TV programs (also at the discretion of the service provider). It is a more ﬂ exible system than the original Closed Caption system, because it allows for a variety of caption sizes and font styles. When the Digital Closed Caption service is in use, it will be indicated by the appearance of a 3-letter abbreviation that also indicates the language of the Digital Closed Captions: ENG (English), SPA (Spanish), FRA (French) or other language codes.

Not all programs and VHS videotapes offer closed captions. Please look for the "1" symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.

In the Closed Caption system, there can be more than one caption service provided. Each is identiﬁ ed by its own number. The "CC1" and "CC2" services display subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the program’s picture.

In the Closed Caption system, the "Text1" or "Text2" services display text that is unrelated to the program being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services are also superimposed over the program currently being viewed.

Press CC.

• This will present the Closed Caption information display.

Press CC while the Closed Caption information

is still on the screen.

• Press repeatedly until you select the desired closed caption service.

Closed Caption information

• Depending on the number of caption services in the signal being received, you will see information such as 1/2 or 1/4 displayed. 1/2 means "the ﬁ rst of two services".

Example:

If a program has three services (Digital CC(ENG), CC1 and Text1), the closed caption display will toggle in this sequence:

• The CC button keeps a record of the last service selected in its memory. If the last closed caption mode (e.g. 1/3 ENG) you selected is not available for the next program, or on another channel, the closed caption service that is available is automatically selected, and this service appears in parentheses, e.g. "1/3(CC1)". Closed Caption services that appear in parentheses will not be stored in the CC button’s memory as your last selected service. Only services that you have selected with the CC button are stored.

Examples:

1/3 ENG 2/3 CC1 3/3 Text1 Off

In a case where there are two closed caption services provided (for instance, Digital CC(ENG) and CC1), and Digital CC(ENG) is displayed as your current selection, if Digital CC(ENG) is not broadcast for the next program, the other closed caption service, CC1, will be displayed in parentheses. A closed caption service appears in parentheses because the service you selected is not available and a different service is displayed on your screen. "1/1(CC1)" is displayed instead of "1/2/ENG".

NOTE

• When "Power Saving" is set to "Standard" or "Advanced", the Power Saving leaf icon appears on the channel information window. See page 23 for details of Power Saving settings.

• See page 24 for detailed closed caption settings.

• When the program contains no closed caption, "--" displays in the closed caption information.

• If the language code, e.g. "ENG", is not found on Digital TV programs, "--" will be shown.

• Four kinds of closed caption service (CC1, CC2, Text1, Text2) are potentially available, but a broadcast may contain none or only some of these services at the discretion of the program provider.

• When a web page is displayed, Closed Captions are not available.

• You can have the same settings by choosing "Change CC" on the menu items. (See page 23.)

Canadian Rating Systems (Canadian English ratings and Canadian French ratings)

• The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television programming.

• While violence is the most important content element to be rated, the structure developed takes into consideration other program content like language, nudity, sexuality and mature themes.

• When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the Canadian French ratings.

■Canadian English Ratings

of violence as the preferred, acceptable, or only way to resolve conﬂ ict; nor encourage children to imitate dangerous acts which they may see on the screen.

G: General: Considered acceptable for all age

groups. Appropriate viewing for the entire family, contains very little violence, physical, verbal or emotional.

PG: Parental Guidance: Intended for a general

audience, but may not be suitable for younger children (under the age of 8) because it could contain controversial themes or issues.

14+: Over 14 years: Could contain themes where

violence is one of the dominant elements of the storyline, but it must be integral to the development of plot or character. Language usage could be profane and nudity present within the context of the theme.

May be viewed by a wide public audience, but could contain scenes disturbing to children under 8 who cannot distinguish between imaginary and

real situations. Recommended for viewing with parent. 13ans+: Over 13 years: Could contain scenes

of frequent violent scenes and therefore

recommended for viewing with parent. 16ans+: Over 16 years: Could contain frequent

You can use special 3D Glasses to watch 3D-supported images on this TV.

• You can enjoy 3D movies on this TV by viewing the movie through SHARP 3D Glasses supplied with the TV or through optional 3D Glasses sold separately.

• To produce 3D images, liquid crystal shutters in the 3D Glasses alternately open and close imperceptibly fast to exactly match alternating left and right video images displayed by the TV.

• Not all consumers can experience and enjoy 3DTV. Some people suffer from stereo blindness which prevents them from perceiving the intended depth of 3D entertainment. Also, some people who watch 3D programming may experience initial feelings of motion sickness as they adjust to the picture. Others may experience headaches, eye fatigue or motion sickness. Some viewers might also experience epileptic seizures. Like a roller coaster, the experience is not for everyone.

CAUTION

• The 3D Glasses are precision equipment. Handle them with care.

• Improper use of the 3D Glasses or failure to follow these instructions can result in eye strain.

• If you experience dizziness, nausea, or other discomfort while viewing 3D images, immediately

discontinue use of the 3D Glasses. Using the 3DTV with incompatible 3D broadcasts or software can make images appear blurry or create overlapping images.

• When viewing 3D images continuously, be sure to take a break periodically to prevent eye strain.

• If you are nearsighted or farsighted or have astigmatism or a different level of eyesight between the

left and right eyes, you should take the necessary steps, such as wearing eyeglasses, to correct your eyesight before viewing 3D images. The 3D Glasses can be worn over eyeglasses.

• When viewing 3D images, keep the 3D Glasses horizontally level with the TV screen. If you tilt the 3D Glasses with respect to the TV screen, the images viewed by the left and right eyes may appear signiﬁ cantly different or images may appear overlapping.

• View 3D images at the appropriate distance from the TV screen. The recommended distance is three times the effective height of the TV screen. Examples of recommended distances 70-inch screen: Approx. 8.5 ft (2.6 m) Viewing should not be done closer than the recommended distance.

• Be careful of your surroundings when viewing 3D images. When you view 3D images, objects may appear closer or farther than they are. This may cause you to misjudge the distance and possibly result in injury if you accidentally hit the screen or surrounding objects.

• The 3D Glasses are not recommended for people aged less than 6.
